The Baltimore City government helps local non-profits use a financial structure that keeps the public in the dark about some organizations’ finances, even when they receive government money. This practice of “fiscal sponsorship” allows established non-profits to provide various services to smaller non-profits, which are often newly created and not registered with the IRS. These services include handling their finances, which allows the smaller non-profits to avoid filing public tax disclosures. “The IRS must investigate these kinds of arrangements for impropriety and bending of the rules,” said Scott Hodge, a senior policy advisor at the Tax Foundation. “These too-clever partnerships are a sign that federal tax-exempt rules are broken and should be reformed.” Baltimore City has a lucrative network of fiscal sponsors that expanded since the COVID-19 pandemic. Prominent foundations, such as the Annie E. Casey Foundation and Open Society Institute steered this effort. The collaboration between wealthy foundations, established fiscal sponsors and local non-profits was later boosted by Baltimore City taxpayer dollars through the Baltimore Children and Youth Fund (BCYF). BCYF was created through a city charter amendment in 2016 and was touted by elected leaders as a plan to support youth-focused community projects after the death of Freddie Gray. The program is funded exclusively by Baltimore City taxpayers but is run through a separate non-profit, meaning there is no regular performance auditing of the fund. There is also no sunset date on the money it receives. A previous FOX45 investigation identified an extensive list of 2022 BCYF grant recipients who did not file tax forms in recent years or are not registered as non-profits with the IRS. Community leaders capitalized on the passage of BCYF to boost the fiscal sponsor network in Baltimore City. BCYF hosted an educational event titled “Understanding Baltimore’s Fiscal Sponsorship Landscape” in January 2021, which it posted on YouTube a month later. The event hosted three panelists: Danielle Torrain of the Open Society Institute; Changa Onyango of Fusion Partnerships, which is a fiscal sponsor; and Candace Chance of The VPI Firm, which provides consulting services. The panelists advocated for government entities and local non-profits to increase payments and coordination with fiscal sponsors in the community, which they said was essential to aid Black-led organizations and counter racism. Torrain said local leaders should focus on reforming what she described as a “non-profit industrial complex” that is rooted in a “very exploitative form of capitalism.” “I do view this as not only a racial justice issue but an economic justice issue,” Torrain said. “So when we think about the work of reimagining our local fiscal sponsorship ecosystem and what it can and should look like, it’s a part of the work of actually reimagining economic systems, and reimagining them in ways of being more regenerative and non-exploitative and more restorative and also rooted in our values as people.” Onyango emphasized the need to take advantage of what he described as a flawed non-profit ecosystem. “We know that the non-profit complex overall is a tax dodge,” he said. “The cat is out the bag. To my funding section, I would just ask you to relent on the pettiness, relent on the pettiness, do some research, let go of your fear, undo the racism, so that we can get on with the business of building what we need to build and coming back to the equilibrium of human beings.” Fusion Partnerships secured a $1.5 million grant from BCYF in June 2021, according to documents obtained by FOX45 through a public information request. The grant came six months after Fusion pleaded for more support for fiscal sponsors as a panelist in the BCYF event. The grant document reveals how BCYF leveraged its youth-focused program to boost fiscal sponsors. “BCYF’s multi-year funding investment will allow Fusion Partnerships (Fusion) to sustain and expand capacity by supporting the strengthening of its business model, to support its current portfolio of fiscally sponsored grantees, and to contribute to growing Fusion’s working capital,” the project summary reads. “This investment will bring to fruition BCYF’s plan to invest in Baltimore’s fiscal sponsorship landscape, thereby supporting the success of grassroots organizations who need fiscal sponsorship. This investment also allows BCYF to support an organization that has been a key partner for BCYF grantees. Fusion supports our partners through its fiscal sponsorship, community grants and capacity building programs. This infusion of cash will strengthen those small organizations, bolster the fiscal sponsorship ecosystem, and increase their grantees’ capacity to support the City’s youth and families.” Fusion Partnerships received grants from a variety of other sources within the Baltimore City government as well, according to the Baltimore City Board of Estimates website. The six government grants to the organization over the past two years total $536,780. A number of the grants were earmarked for fiscally sponsored organizations, such as the Baltimore Doula Project and Challenge2Change. A spokesman for Fusion Partnerships previously acknowledged to FOX45 that “some of our partner projects have received funding from BCYF,” but declined to specify those projects. The group did not respond to questions regarding why it needs funds from local organizations and taxpayers. The push to expand the fiscal sponsorship network in Baltimore City continued when the Casey Foundation and Open Society Institute initiated a study in August 2021 titled “Mapping Baltimore’s Fiscal Sponsorship Landscape.” Researchers interviewed local non-profit and fiscal sponsor leaders. The report recommends that grant distributors pay fiscal sponsors in addition to the grants awarded to community non-profits. “These cash reserves could be done as one-time direct investments into specific fiscal sponsors, such as BCYF did with Fusion Partnership,” the report recommended with a likely reference to Fusion Partnership’s $1.5 million contract with BCYF. More grants to fiscal sponsors soon followed. BCYF awarded a $2 million grant in December 2021 to the Fund for Educational Excellence (FFEE), a fiscal sponsor, for its “Baltimore’s Promise Summer Funding Collaborative” program, according to documents obtained by FOX45 in a public information request. FFEE continued to receive grants from BCYF for this summer program, according to additional documents, including $2 million in 2022 and $1.85 million in 2024. A review of FFEE’s non-profit tax forms revealed the group appeared to use its BCYF summer funding award to distribute an extensive list of grants of its own to other non-profits. This trail of payments accounts for a significant majority of FFEE’s dispersed grants. FFEE listed 80 of its 104 grant distributions in its fiscal year 2023 tax form as being for a “summer funding” program. Its fiscal year 2022 tax form listed 66 of its 82 grants under this qualification and fiscal year 2021 listed 52 of its 65 grants. The majority of these “summer funding” grants from FFEE appeared to go to smaller, local non-profits. However, some went to additional fiscal sponsors. FFEE gave Fusion Partnerships $374,022 between fiscal years 2022 and 2023 listed for “summer funding collaborative.” It gave Fusion Partnerships another $575,000 in fiscal year 2021 for “B’more Invested & Summer Grant.” B’more Invested is a non-profit focused on grantmaking that is “anchored” by the Open Society Institute, according to the group’s website. FFEE gave a series of recent grants to Bmore Empowered, a fiscal sponsor whose operations director, Hana Pugh, is married to Baltimore City Mayor Brandon Scott. Some of these grants appear to be tied to BCYF taxpayer dollars through the summer funding program. A $55,230 grant from FFEE in fiscal year 2023 to Bmore Empowered was listed for “Summer Funding / B’more Invested.” A $13,051 grant in fiscal year 2022 to the group was listed for “Summer Funding Collaborative.” A $150,000 grant in fiscal year 2021 was listed for “B’more Invested.” Another fiscal sponsor, the Maryland Philanthropy Network, received $377,000 from FFEE between fiscal years 2021 and 2023 for B’more Invested, “Summer Grant” and the “healing cities” program. Fusion Partnerships, FFEE and Bmore Empowered did not respond to questions about its fiscal sponsorship operations. BCYF mentioned the Summer Funding Collaborative program in its 2023 grant awardees announcement, stating its goal to “fund different types of summer programs to keep students engaged and reduce summer learning loss so that more youth can reach their full potential.” However, BCYF did not mention FFEE in its description of the program. BCYF listed $8.4 million in grant funding to 60 organizations in its 2023 announcement. It listed $5.25 million in grants to 35 organizations in its 2022 announcement. The Summer Funding Collaborative program has its own website that describes its operations as a “partnership between public, private and non-profit organizations that supports high-quality summer programs serving children and youth from low-income backgrounds in Baltimore City.” David Williams, the president of the non-partisan Taxpayer Protection Alliance, warned this trail of funds from BCYF to fiscal sponsors and then to smaller non-profits exposes a series of transparency concerns. “Every time you go from one non-profit to another, you’re getting less transparency and less accountability of the money,” Williams said. “When you create multiple non-profits, you’re creating a mini army that is marching in lockstep with you. And they look independent, but they aren’t.” Baltimore City did not respond to questions about its funding of fiscal sponsors. The reshaped fiscal sponsorship network in Baltimore City followed years of troubled finances. Strong City, a fiscal sponsor, abandoned its clients in May 2021 after it mismanaged $14 million in assets, as previously reported by The Baltimore Sun. At one point, the organization sponsored more than 150 programs. A 2019 city audit found BCYF had “opportunities for improvement” on its grant distributions. BCYF was restructured as its own non-profit shortly thereafter. The 2019 audit was ordered amid the Healthy Holly scandal that led to a three-year prison sentence for Former Baltimore City Mayor Catherine Pugh.A Republican senator has blocked the promotion of a general who oversaw troops in Kabul during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, a Senate aide told NBC News . The move by Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin follows threats from President-elect Donald Trump to fire senior officers and officials who oversaw the chaotic pullout from Afghanistan in 2021. It also comes as Trump’s transition team weighs possible court-martial proceedings against current and former officers involved in the withdrawal, as NBC News previously reported. Watch NBC Bay Area News 📺 Streaming free 24/7 Army Lt. Gen. Christopher Donahue was nominated for promotion to become a four-star general and to oversee U.S. Army forces in Europe. His nomination was among more than 900 proposed nominations sent to the Senate but Donahue’s was put on hold by Sen. Mullin, according to the Senate aide. Mullin’s office declined to comment. Donahue was the last American service member to board the final U.S. military plane out of Afghanistan in 2021. A night-vision photograph of Donahue boarding a cargo plane went viral, capturing the symbolism of the end of America’s 20-year-long war. After the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan fell to Taliban militants, Donahue — then commander of the 82nd Airborne Division — was ordered to Kabul to oversee the withdrawal of U.S. forces, American embassy staff and Afghans who fought alongside American troops. Retired Gen. Tony Thomas, former head of Special Operations Command, said in a social media post that the decision was a “disgrace” and that Donahue was being treated as a “political pawn.” Heather Nauert, who worked for the State Department in Trump’s first presidential term, said in a social media post that she is a Trump supporter and likes Sen. Mullin but disagreed with the hold put on Donahue’s promotion. “Unless there are facts I don’t know, holding up military promotions bc of our disgraceful Afghanistan withdrawal is wrong,” she wrote. Donahue is currently commander of the XVIII Airborne Corps at Fort Liberty in North Carolina. His promotion could now be at risk as the current Senate will soon go into recess and the new Republican-controlled Congress will start its work in 2025. This article first appeared on NBCNews.com .

Donald Trump's Project 2025: Is big change coming soon?By DAVID McHUGH The Associated Press FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Germany’s technology and services company Bosch said Friday it planned to reduce its automotive division workforce by as many as 5,500 jobs in the next several years in another sign of the headwinds hitting the German and global auto industries. The company cited stagnating global auto sales, too much factory capacity in the auto industry compared with sales prospects and a slower than expected transition to electric-powered, software-controlled vehicles. The news comes two days after Ford Motor Co. announced plans to drop 4,000 jobs in Europe , and with Volkswagen employees threatening work stoppages over what they say management has told them are plans to close as many as three factories in Germany. Revenue at Stellantis , created through the 2021 merger of PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, tumbled 27% in its most recent quarter that ended this fall. Auto sales have slowed this year in Europe as consumers stung by inflation hold back on spending, while automakers have sunk billions into developing electric cars only to see slower sales than expected and new competition from cheaper Chinese brands. The German government abruptly cancelled purchase incentives at the end of last year, sending electric vehicles sales in that country down by 27% over the first nine months of this year. Some 3,500 of the job reductions at Bosch would come before the end of 2027 and would hit the part of the company that develops advanced driver assistance and automated driving technologies, as well as centralized vehicle software, said Bosch, which is headquartered in Gerlingen near Stuttgart. About half those job reductions would be at locations in Germany. “The auto industry has significant overcapacities,” the company said in a statement. “In addition, the market for future technologies is not developing as originally expected ... At the moment, many projects in this business area are being put off or abandoned by automakers.” In addition, 750 jobs would be lost at a plant in Hildesheim, Germany by end 2032, 600 of those by the end of 2026. A plant in Schwaebisch Gmund would lose some 1,300 over between 2027 and 2030. The reductions are still in the planning stage and final numbers would have to be agreed with employee representatives and carried out in what the company said would be a socially responsible way. While automakers put their names on the cars they sell, most of the car is actually made by a series of suppliers Some 230,000 people work for Bosch’s mobility division, out of a global workforce of 429,000. In addition to its business as an auto industry technology supplier Bosch makes factory and building equipment and software across a range of products including industrial boilers and waste-heat recovery systems, video security systems, and power tools.

An accidental chief minister Edappadi Palaniswami (EPS) on Sunday celebrated the centenary year of another accidental chief minister S Janaki, who took the post in 1987 following the death of her husband and AIADMK’s founder MGR’s (MG Ramachandran’s) death, to become Tamil Nadu’s first woman chief minister but could hold on to the position only for 24 days. Janaki lost out on support to J Jayalalithaa who began to head the AIADMK from 1989. Following Jayalalithaa’s death in office in 2016, EPS who was nowhere close to the race was handpicked to become chief minister and who is now the leader of opposition and AIADMK’s general secretary on Sunday planned a mega event in Chennai. It comes at a time when the AIADMK is at its lowest with the party losing every election since Jayalaalithaa’s death. And while it has splintered into factions with EPS refusing to take back the trio he expelled – VK Sasikala who made him the chief minister, her nephew TTV Dhinakaran and O Panneerselvam with whom he jointly led the AIADMK and the state for five years until 2022. EPS said: “It is normal for a change in government but AIADMK will emerge victorious in the 2026 assembly elections. We are a family party of cadres. We are not like the DMK which is a party of (late) M Karunanidhi’s family.” “Only those in his family can become leaders of the party and govern the state. But, in AIADMK anyone who works hard and is loyal can become the general secretary of the party and even become chief minister,” he said, while referring to the trio he expelled for going against the party’s principles and targeting the elevation of Karunanidhi’s grandson and chief minister MK Stalin’s son Udhayanidhi as deputy chief minister in September. EPS went on to further compare the AIADMK and the ruling DMK. “We have ruled Tamil Nadu much longer than the DMK. We have ruled for 31 years,” EPS said. “And we gave good governance. Tamil Nadu is in the forefront now because of the schemes laid out by the AIADMK.” At the event, there was an AI generated video of MGR addressing the cadre and praising EPS for following the footsteps of him and Jayalalithaa. Actor Rajinikanth, who couldn’t attend the event, released a video message praising Janaki for handing over the party to Jayalalithaa which led to the factions of the two women to unite under the AIADMK after MGR’s death. Though Rajinikanth is a non-starter in politics, his comments back in the 90s swayed Tamil Nadu’s vote bank. Jayalalithaa lost the 1996 assembly election which has historically been linked to Rajinikanth saying that “even God can’t save Tamil Nadu” if she is voted back to power. “The ‘Two Leaves’ symbol is the Brahmastra of the AIADMK, and madam Janaki played a key role in its retrieval after it was frozen,” said Rajinikanth after the iconic symbol was frozen following MGR’s death and the split. “It was a great sacrifice, and I congratulate the AIADMK for celebrating her centenary.” Janaki had lost the vote of confidence in the assembly before renouncing the reins of the AIADMK. Meanwhile, deputy chief minister Udhayanidhi Stalin criticised EPS of leading the AIADMK in a poor way that nobody wants to join their alliance. After the EPS led AIADMK broke of its alliance with the BJP last September, most of the allies except the Desiya Murpokku Dravida Kazhagam (DMDK) stayed with the national party. “AIADMK’s treasurer Dindigul Srinivasan is himself saying at a party meeting that certain parties were demanding ₹ 100 crore to join their alliance,” Udhayanidhi said. “This shows the state of the AIADMK alliance. But, our DMK-led secular progressive alliance is united and has proven to be a winning coalition.” Responding to EPS who questioned his elevation, sports minister Udhayanidhi said that he was not like EPS who fell on Sasikala’s feet to get the post to head the AIADMK and become chief minister. “My rise from youth wing secretary to MLA, minister, and now deputy chief minister is built on hard work and the people’s trust,” Udhayanidhi said.Trump pledges unity — then says rivals ‘should go to jail’

CHICAGO (AP) — Two-time NBA scoring champion Joel Embiid returned to the Philadelphia 76ers' starting lineup against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday. After missing his first seven shots and ambling deliberately in his left knee brace in the first quarter, the 2023 MVP went on a tear to propel the Sixers to a 108-100 win over the Chicago Bulls. Embiid connected on eight of his next 10 shots in the second quarter for his first 19 points of the game, which lifted Philadelphia to a 62-50 halftime lead. The Sixers stretched it to 19 before holding on for their fourth win in five games, and Embiid finished with 31. “I just got lucky and started making shots,” Embiid deadpanned when he talked to reporters almost 90 minutes after the game. “We just missed shots and we adjusted and we got them in.” Embiid, a seven-time All-Star, added 12 rebounds in his fifth game this season. The 7-foot center had missed the previous seven games because of knee injuries and a three-game suspension for pushing a sports columnist. Embiid finished slightly above his career average of nearly 27.8 points per game in 33 minutes. The Sixers don't play again until Friday thanks to the NBA Cup, so coach Nick Nurse planned to give his star ample work Sunday with a break and recovery time ahead. “All of a sudden he certainly caught fire there with a little bit of variety,” Nurse said. “I know a lot of it seemed like foul-line jumpers, which it was. He snuck in a roll or two and a couple of post-ups. It gave us a lot of confidence.” The Sixers trailed 33-23 after the first quarter. Behind Embiid and a 16-0 run in the second, they took the lead for good. Chicago got within four points twice in the fourth, but Philadelphia closed it out. “We guarded really well and we rebounded extremely well at both ends,” Nurse said. Tyrese Maxey got his first career triple-double as part of the winning formula and clicked with Embiid. Maxey finished with 25 points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds. “It was great, that's who he is,” Maxey said of Embiid. “After he got in the game it's easy, it was easier, man. There was a lot more space out there.” The All-Star trio of Embiid, Maxey and Paul George (12 points) played together for only the second game this season. “Obviously we've got the connection,” Embiid said. "We know when things are not going right, what we need to do. Now it's up to us to make the shots and the plays. “After that first quarter, it just felt like we needed to take more of an ownership as far as getting us back in the game. They're great players.” AP NBA: https://apnews.com/hub/nba

12. Clemson Tigers 10-3 (7-1 Atlantic Coast Conference regular season) What's next: First-round at No. 5 seed Texas, Dec. 21 Head coach: Dabo Swinney (17th season, 180-46 overall) About Swinney: The 55-year-old, who is 6-4 in the CFP, took over during the 2008 season and has won two national titles (2016, 2018). He will take the Tigers to the CFP the first time since the 2020 season and the seventh time overall. Resume The Tigers, the only three-loss team in the 12-team field, were in a must-win situation in the ACC championship game, prevailing on a last-second, 56-yard field goal to defeat SMU 34-31. Clemson lost two games to SEC opponents (Georgia and South Carolina) this season. The Tigers' other defeat came at home to Louisville. The matchup with Texas will be Clemson's first true road game against the SEC this season. Postseason history A nine-time winner of the ACC Championship Game, the Tigers notched a double-figure win total for the 13th time in the last 14 seasons. Along with its two national titles, Clemson reached the title game two other times (2019 and 2015). This will be the first Clemson-Texas matchup. The road to Atlanta It will be a tricky road for the Tigers to reach the CFP title game in Atlanta at a venue familiar to Clemson fans. The Tigers will take at least two and maybe three trips outside of their own time zone to qualify for the final. Names to know QB Cade Klubnik Klubnik, a Texas native, has been taking snaps in crucial situations since a limited role as a freshman in 2022, when he rescued the Tigers in an ACC Championship victory vs. North Carolina. Sporting a 19-8 career record as a starter, Klubnik has thrown for 3,303 yards and 33 touchdowns along with five interceptions this season. He tossed four TDs in the ACC title game Dec. 7 against SMU after receiving All-ACC honorable mention following the regular season. "He's battle-tested," Swinney said. "He has got a lot of experience under his belt. He has had some failure, which has made him better." RB Phil Mafah The senior has racked up 1,106 rushing yards with eight touchdowns this season and has 28 career scores. Mafah has averaged fewer than 17 carries per game, so he makes the most of his opportunities, and at 230 pounds he can be a load to bring down. DE T.J. Parker He's been disruptive on a regular basis, racking up 19 tackles for loss (11 sacks) this season. The 265-pound sophomore helped set the tone in the ACC title game when the Tigers feasted on early SMU mistakes. Parker is tied for the Division I lead with six forced fumbles this season. K Nolan Hauser The freshman joined the Tigers this season with great acclaim and produced a career highlight with a 56-yard game-winning field goal -- the longest in ACC title game history -- to beat SMU at the buzzer. --Field Level Media
